WE'RE RUST PROOF MARKETING

Rust Proof Marketing was founded with a single mission: to help businesses grow profitably and sustainably through the power of strategic marketing. At the heart of the agency is Elias Rust, a marketing expert whose journey began when he launched his first business at just 18 years old. That early venture—a print-on-demand dropshipping business—wasn’t an overnight success. In fact, it struggled for months, which led Elias to dive headfirst into the world of marketing to figure out how to turn things around.

His efforts paid off. By mastering the nuances of advertising and branding, he scaled his business to the point where it hit $8,000 to $10,000 per month. But even more significant than the revenue was what he discovered along the way: a true passion for marketing.

From that moment, Elias dedicated himself to becoming the best marketer he could possibly be. He invested in courses, books, and resources, spending over 50 hours a week studying and applying what he learned. His expertise quickly caught the attention of local businesses, who began hiring him to help them achieve their goals. As his reputation grew, Elias took on roles like Head of Media Buying for a marketing agency, where he managed millions in ad spend and trained other media buyers. These experiences solidified his vision of building an agency that combined hands-on expertise with a results-driven approach—and Rust Proof Marketing was born.

Elias Rust has:

  • Managed over $4 million in ad spend, delivering outstanding results across platforms like Google Ads, Facebook, and TikTok.

  • Partnered with businesses across industries, from local restaurants to yacht rental companies, credit services, and more.

  • Generated over 100 million social media views, helping brands turn awareness into action.
     

At Rust Proof Marketing, we take a hands-on approach to every project. Unlike many agencies that outsource their work, we handle every campaign in-house. From strategy to execution, everything is done by Elias and his trusted team, including our CMO, Austin, ensuring a level of care and expertise that can’t be matched.

We believe that every business deserves a marketing partner that’s as invested in their success as they are. That’s why we go beyond the cookie-cutter solutions most agencies provide, crafting strategies tailored to your unique goals. Whether you’re looking to scale your revenue, grow your local presence, or dominate your industry, we’re here to help you make it happen.
At Rust Proof Marketing, your success is our obsession. Let’s grow together.
